Like I said Tim, use your best judgment

Seeya 👋

Lol you keep repeating that

Well, soucechecking is one thing, But Id imagine if you plan on pissing alot of people off for profit, youd want to know the laws and what you can reasonably get away with.

After gawker, sure Buzzfeed would be alot more careful and therefore more knowledgable.

Or am I making a bad assumption here?

daily wire?

@Timcast Did they say they wanted to talk to you coz things were getting messed up in the msm?

Actually thats important, why you over someone else?

what if its people in this very chat! 😱

they said the newswas wrong

dun dun dun!!!!!

so they asked if I had any questions

Did they give any hit of them contacting others as well?

interesting.

Or how many they did?

they mentioned swatting a bunch of celebrities

Other outlets?

Oh, I was thinking how many other people they wanted to "correct"

This needs to come out Tim.

Fuck this I picked a bad time to play XCOM UFO defense

It needs to come out. How it does is the question.

I.... Dont like to sound like Im telling someone how to do his job.

i dunno it all seems kinda fishy imo,

If they did it , NOT out of political reasons, they'd be trolling,
Why would a troll swatter want to correct the record? If they do it its to rile people up, and political reasons rile up more than a joke

Could this just be fake people contacting you?

possibly, but the recording seems legit

Or maybe they didnt expect this to get political

I never had such a call so i couldn't judge

everyone was saying it was attempted murder so maybe they are worried

They probably looked at the most jumpiest people on twitter

they were poo pooing it

saying only one person has ever died from swatting

And they wanted to cover their tracks. Its like a prankster going its just a prank bro

So that if they got caught, hopefully they wouldnt be punished as bad

that's a good point.

David has a very influencial position on Twitter, thats probably how their targets were picked.

Realising how big it was and that they are #1 on the find list and have a date with MSM big time.

well the outrage and investigation are already there, so going "it was a joke that got swept too far" isn't gonna be a good defense

Whatever ends up happening I think a disclaimer is still a good idea just in case.

im going to add a disclaimer and an explanation over ethics

Well its better than nothing I guess. A prank gone wrong.

Not malicious, just being a prick.
